Meaning of the number at the end of each BIG-IP connection table entries

Hi

 

When you issue the command show /sys connection cs-server-addr 192.168.1.100

 

What is the meaning of the number 9 right at the end of the entry shown in the command result below:

 

192.168.1.20:3378 192.168.1.100:22 192.168.1.20:3378 10.10.11.1:22 tcp 9

 

is this the number of TCP connections?

 

Kindly Wasfi

    Hi Wasfi,

     

    This is the idle timer. It gives an indication how long ago (in seconds) the BIG-IP has seen a data packet for this connection.

     

    Cheers,
